Sources close to Jennifer Lopez had mentioned that she didn’t want to give up on her marriage and wanted to make things right. They claimed that the singer-actress was not someone who would just give up easily, but it seemed like Affleck was done. But now Jennifer Garner’s opinions weigh in.

Jennifer Garner feels Ben Affleck is ‘ungrateful’ for Jennifer Lopez

Actress Jennifer Garner, who was married to Ben Affleck from 2005 to 2018, has been a constant support to the actor even after their separation. She has always been there for the actor, not only because they have kids together but also because at one time they were in love. Garner was very supportive with Affleck and Jennifer Lopez rekindling their romance and finally making it to the aisle.

But now with his separation from Jennifer Lopez, two years after their wedding, Garner feels that Affleck has not been on his best behavior. Sources close to the actress shared with InTouch Weekly,

Jen has a huge amount of sway with Ben these days, so she does feel quite obligated to police his behavior, particularly when it comes to the way he’s been treating J.Lo. He’s been so impatient with her and actually quite ungrateful, at least in Jen’s view.

The source claims that the reason why Ben Affleck is impatient with Lopez is because he does not like the fact that she still micromanages him. But it has been said that she is actually being kind to him. They said,

Ben is also pretty rude and grumpy whenever he talks to or sees J.Lo, and for Jen, that’s just not acceptable. She thinks he needs to grow up and act like an adult and start being a lot nicer to J.Lo.

The publication mentioned that throughout their process of dissolution of marriage, the actor and the singer went back and forth arguing about the exact details of their split. They were trying hard to make things right and to keep their once-blended family as happy as possible.

The source mentioned that they both said they wanted to do it amicably and have even talked a good game about wanting to consciously uncouple. But the plan seems to be out of the window because they can’t agree on how to divide things. However, after six months of going back and forth, they have finally settled their divorce.

Jennifer Lopez embracing her ‘single life’ post-divorce settlement with Ben Affleck

According to US Weekly, sources have shared that Jennifer Lopez is now adjusting and embracing the single life post her divorce settlement from Ben Affleck. They mentioned,

She’s enjoying being single and is feeling herself. She has no regrets. She was very in love with Ben, but love isn’t enough sometimes. Things worked out for the best and how they were supposed to.

The sources shared that Jennifer Lopez is having fun while she is also working on her projects loves how she looks and does not shy away from flaunting. In an interview with British Vogue, she shared,

I think the way I overcome things is not by thinking of them as happening to me but by happening for me and what is the lesson that needs to be learned at the moment. When I think of things that way and stay in a kind of more positive mindset about it, it’s easier to kind of embrace it for the lesson that it is.

The singer-actress who recently appeared in Unstoppable mentioned that hardships are a lesson in everyone’s life and there are no coincidences. Everything happens for a reason.

And what she can learn now is how to come out on the other side better, stronger, and more knowledgeable.
